So, i planned to wait till release date before buying Fallout 4 from russian GMG.

But i just now noticed, that some games that you could preorder on the russian site, at release are not buyable anymore. For example Mad Max and Grand Ages Medieval.

My question is now, if i preorder a game from GMG, that at one point isn't avaiable anymore in the bought region, will i still get the key at release?


I found something interesting in this regard...

I bought that Season Pass a couple weeks ago, but couldn't find it on GMG today. What happened? Sad

Will it be released again later, or should I ask for a refund?

Jahman posted 2 weeks ago
While unfortunately I do not know why the Season Pass has been removed from the store, as long as You have pre-purchased it before it disappeared You will receive your key for it. Alternatively, based on a few, very rare cases from the past, if it turns out GMG is unable to fulfill your pre-purchase for some reason they will refund You automatically.


So normally even if it isn't sold anymore they'll supposedly try to get you the key. Rarely do they have to refund. According to this moderator. FYI obviously since these posts were made, the season pass is back in the store.

I also can't see any of the RU tags you were talking about earlier. None of the games are marked with region specifics.

Very rarely do I see the RU tag.

Surfing GMG with hola, I found an example, this one:

http://www.greenmangaming.com/s/ru/en/pc/games/action/valve-complete-pack-ru/

See it says RU specifically even in the URL.

A problem is if GMG aren't good at tagging their games properly, and that we'll end up with the wrong key anyway based on us shopping from the Russian storefront. But what Bob said about him buying ROW keys without problem could mean there's a fair chance it'll work.

Something else that is interesting with regards to the Season pass for Fallout 4.

Russian Steam Store Price:
ru Russian Ruble 1499р.

GMG Store Price:
ru Russian Ruble 2019.39p.

Why.

I think the whole russian GMG store is just some experiment and not intended for public yet. Laughing

- Coupons are never usable.
- Some prices are often crazy high, like 5000 rubels (~70€). But this again only affects games that were cheap before their release. So either at release a game might disappear completely from the story, or get some price increase.

I just hope Fallout and maybe Just Cause 3 won't get the same fate shortly before release. Crying or Very sad

Very nice Russian prices for new XCOM and the new Deus Ex on pre-order. Very tempting.

If you read my post at the start of this page, a GMG moderator said they will provide keys even if the game is removed from the store IF you have already purchased it/preordered.


Haha, you're right.

Assassins Creed Syndicate 5000p.

Dang. Very Happy

So, as i never got a region locked key from russian GMG so far, i thought of something:
I always disable the VPN before typing in my creditcard details. So i guess GMG just checks the geolocation after sending out the order.

This information in their FAQ also confirms my thought:

I'm on holiday and I want to buy a game?

We sell games based on your geolocation, if you make a purchase on holiday it will be a key for the region you are in. We cannot guarantee this will work when you return home.


Still unsure if i should order FO4 there. :O

As per our recent announcement on our blog http://blog.playfire.com/2015/11/batman-arkham-knight-update.html we are currently also honouring refunds for Batman Arkham Knight.

I am sorry to hear that you want this order refunded, but under the circumstances it's completely understandable! I have refunded the purchase now. The funds will return to the payment method you used to pay for this order. You should have the funds within a few days, thank you for your patience.

Your key will be deactivated as part of the refund process.

I wrote to GMG support again, if they know what kind of keys they will send out. I hope they can give a clear answer. If not, i hope somebody else somewhere else bought a key there too and can give clarification. Very Happy

RU keys have play lock, don't see why they wouldn't be using these if they have it. Typical Bethesda.

I can confim the same. I activated FO4 from Russian storefront. If it is a placeholder that transforms into a RU key on release, I don't know, but for now it is titled "Fallout 4" not Fallout 4 RU for example.

Thanks @tohnolo and @EternalBlueScreen.

If it really gets transformed into a locked version at release or later, well meh. Just gonna play the isodemo too for the time. Hoping that after 3 months it transformed into a region free version .
